Dear Annie:
I think the only thing I have read, that is not in my book, is much of the life of John Richardson which can be found in "Forgotten Heroes: The Charge of the Light Brigade" by Roy Dutton, recently published. It is the best book on the men of the Light Brigade who charged or may have charged in existence and if any of this group are interested in the Light Brigade, copies are not too expensive and are available at Amazon.com and almost any online bookseller. If you want to know who rode in the Charge, I have a pretty complete list at my website at lawrencecrider.com as a downloadable PDF file. Please forgive my not reading all the posts at this time, but I am editing a journal and the final copy must be sent tomorrow night . . .
Re: first names: I will try to add the entries on each that I have in my book:
(I list them by the rank they held the day of the Charge, if they were in the Crimea)
